Why do we only have wax in our ears. Why not nose/belly button?


Pitch is to frequency of sound as loudnes is to?



Answers:
Wax is produced to protect our ears from damage by loud noises. In a sudden loud BANG situation, the ear will rapidly produce wax to absorb some of the sound and protect the eardrum from damage. As the nose and bellybutton don't need this kind of protection, then wax in these orifices is unnecessary. Of course, why we produce nasal mucus and bellybutton fluff is yet another matter!

you kind of do have something similar in your nose and your belly bottom doesn't need protecting from bacteria/dust, you can just wash to do that. ear wax and snot protect the inside and they are different because thats what works for that part of your body, if our bodies needed wax in our noses then that is how we would have evolved through natural selection.
